Commentator Oh Jae-won, formerly of the professional baseball team Doosan Bears, is causing controversy after publicly criticizing former player Park Chan-ho, known as the 'Korean Express,' in a recent interview. In an interview with Den magazine, Commentator Oh Jae-won discussed the reasons why he became a commentator. During this process, he criticized the subjective expressions of professional baseball commentators and publicly criticized former player Park Chan-ho's commentary style. Specifically, it was pointed out that commentators use the word "disappointing" too easily in common expressions such as "disappointing defense" or "disappointing batting." [Oh Jae-won / Professional Baseball Commentator (Source: YouTube 'Den Magazine'): "Ah, that defense was really disappointing," or "Ah, that batting just now was really disappointing." They say things like this so easily.] He also strongly criticized the expression "In my opinion..."—which presupposes the commentators' personal views—using phrases like "a feast of irresponsible words" and stating, "I really hate that." [Oh Jae-won / Professional Baseball Commentator (Source: YouTube 'Den Magazine'): And when a situation arises, they say, "Ah, that was from my perspective..." That is just what they saw... I really hated that feast of irresponsible words, the misunderstandings that build up because of it, and the images that are created in an instant because of it.] In particular, the controversial part was the public attack on former player Park Chan-ho. [Oh Jae-won / Professional Baseball Commentator (Source: YouTube 'Den Magazine'): "I wish this had been included in the video (without editing)," he said, adding, "Jeon "I really hate the Korean Express," he revealed. Regarding the reason for his dislike of commentator Park Chan-ho, Commentator Oh Jae-won criticized, "It is not just once or twice that he has made a fool of a player by appearing once or twice (as a commentator)." Up to this point, it can be seen as an expression of personal likes and dislikes, but the problem lies in what follows. It is due to another assessment he made just before publicly criticizing commentator Park Chan-ho. Let's listen. [Oh Jae-won / Professional Baseball Commentator (Source: YouTube 'Den Magazine'): I really hate the Korean Express. I hate him so much... what I mean is... since I am an ordinary person, I can speak about this.] "He is the one who truly brought glory to our country and coined the term 'Korean Express.' It seems he doesn't understand the gratitude we feel for the entire nation waking up at dawn to cheer for him before that. There are quite a few players he has made fools of by appearing as a commentator, but it seems he has never taken responsibility for that..." Baseball fans are paying attention to the Hanwha vs. Doosan game in August 2012, where Park Chan-ho and Oh Jae-won faced off as players. During the top of the 5th inning, when Oh Jae-won was at bat, the ball hit his foot and became a foul, but Park Chan-ho believed it had not hit his foot. The issue arose during the 2014 Incheon Asian Games, when Park Chan-ho served as a commentator. While sharing an anecdote about Oh Jae-won, he described him as "a player who gave me a hard time," and publicly criticized Oh, claiming that Oh had used deception to turn a fair ball into a foul. At the time, Oh Jae-won expressed his frustration, stating, "I absolutely never did that. I couldn't sleep after hearing the news." The misunderstanding was resolved when some fans captured footage from the game where the batted ball hit Oh's foot and sent it to commentator Park Chan-ho. While Park Chan-ho expressed his apologies during the finals against Taiwan, saying, "I feel like I gave my junior a hard time," it is possible that the sense of injustice and resentment from that time still lingers for Commentator Oh Jae-won. The reaction from baseball fans to Oh Jae-won's remarks was generally cold. Many comments were posted stating that his personal opinion regarding Park Chan-ho's commentary is unrelated to the fact that Park Chan-ho does not appreciate the public's support. In short, the criticism regarding former player Park Chan-ho's lack of gratitude for the public's support is a double-standard argument with absolutely no basis. Commentator Oh Jae-won, who retired from his playing career last year, is currently working as a commentator for the sports-specialized TV channel SPOTV. #OhJaeWon #ParkChanHo #KoreanExpress #Sniper #Baseball #Commentary #YTN Lee Hyung-geun ([email protected]) ※ 'Your tip becomes news' [KakaoTalk] Search for YTN a...
